Six Pillars Broward County

Welcome to the Six Pillars Broward website.

Broward County's volunteer-led 20 year strategic visioning plan through the year 2030.

In 2011, more than 350 Broward County business, civic, academic and government leaders, volunteers and community residents began the process of developing a strategic visioning plan through the year 2030, using the Six Pillars framework of the Florida Chamber Foundation as a strategic planning tool. The plan was developed over the next year and launched in October 2012.

Six Pillars is meant to help communities prosper and create high paying jobs by developing and implementing a visioning process through 2030. The Six Pillars framework is the product of collaboration and research by the Florida Chamber Foundation, working with many other partners. It identifies the critical factors determining Florida’s future and that of its communities. They are as follows:

The Six Pillars Broward community plan is made up of 22 goals, 82 strategies and nearly 400 tactics. To download the latest version of the Broward Six Pillars plan with the current status of tactics and successes, please click here.

““Our goal is to bring as many stakeholders as possible into Broward’s Six Pillars planning process,” said David Armstrong, one of the Six Pillars co-chairs and president of Broward College. “Members of our community will have an opportunity to jointly agree on priorities for our County, make decisions that prompt action, measure progress, and make periodic adjustments to the Plan when appropriate.”

“Each of the Six Pillars topics is important in its own right," said Broward County Commissioner Chip LaMarca and a Six Pillars co-chair. “When we bring them all together to develop a strategic vision, we will most assuredly impact our future success by creating high wage jobs, a vibrant community prepared for the future and the tools we need in Broward County to compete in an increasing global competitive environment.”
